.Tap, tap, tap... Is this thing on? Anyone still out there? It's been a while, and while I've been away Passover 2011 has come and gone, and with it my parents' annual two week visit and the kids' 2+ week school vacation. Unlike other years we didn't go away at all this year (I can't bring myself to use the word staycation) so it was all togetherness, all the time. Lots of good fun, occasionally but luckily not very often a wee bit too much togetherness (mainly with the kids LOL), and not a lot of free computer time. We sent my parents on their way back to New Hampshire last night (and after 23 hours they're still not all the way home, what a mess...), dealt with are still dealing with the inevitable post-visit "I miiiiiissssssss them / why can't we live near them" meltdowns and tomorrow the kids head back to school and real life resumes in earnest, or as close to earnest as it gets around here.

We did have a great holiday though, full of good times and good memories, and lots and LOTS of photos. Like this one from Mini Israel's Passover "Haggadah Comes to Life" events.

What, you never knew that Moses (on the left) and Pharoah (on the right) pal'd around together in their spare time, sharing their funky gold shades with passing children?

Who? Where? What island?

No, not a tropical island. My kitchen island, where my life happens.
Fine art, nature and travel photography from around Israel and around the world, with a side helping of musings and family life from a mom of two just outside of Tel Aviv, Israel.
